Effect of 9-(6,7-dideoxy-beta-D-allo-hept-5-ynofuranosyl)adenine on noradrenaline release from vascular sympathetic nerves.

摘要

1. The effects of 9-(6,7-dideoxy-beta-D-allo-hept-5-ynofuranosyl)adenine (HAK2701), a selective and potent ligand for P3 receptor-like protein, on the release of endogenous noradrenaline (NA) from electrically stimulated rat mesenteric artery and rabbit ear artery were compared with those of a number of purinoceptor agonists. 2. In the rat mesenteric artery, the P1 receptor agonists 2-chloroadenosine (2CA) and 5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine (NECA) and the P2 purinoceptor agonists beta,gamma-methylene ATP (betagammamATP) and 2-methylthio ATP (2mSATP) significantly inhibited the release of NA in a xanthine-sensitive manner. HAK2701 did not significantly inhibit the release of NA, the relative order of potency being betagammamATP > NECA > 2CA > 2mSATP HAK2701. 3. In the rabbit ear artery, both P1 and P2 receptor agonists significantly facilitated the release of NA in a xanthine-sensitive manner. HAK2701 also significantly facilitated the release of NA, the relative order of potency being HAK2701 > betagammamATP > 2CA > 2mSATP > NECA. 4. These findings suggest that HAK2701 may be a potent and selective agonist for facilitatory prejunctional purinoceptors, but not for inhibitory purinoceptors, on adrenergic nerve terminals.
